Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flower box technology, and in particular to a novel flower box. Background Technology

[0002] At present, flower boxes are commonly used as planting containers in urban landscaping, road medians, and residential landscape design. Flower boxes not only beautify the environment, but also divide space and guide traffic.

[0003] However, most flower boxes on the market currently adopt a one-piece design and lack assembly capabilities. This design brings great inconvenience to transportation and storage. Because they cannot be disassembled, the flower boxes occupy a lot of space, resulting in low space utilization of transport vehicles and a significant increase in transportation costs. During storage, they also require a large warehouse area, increasing warehousing costs and placing a heavy economic burden on both businesses and users.

[0004] Secondly, most existing flower boxes cannot be spliced ​​together, making flexible combinations difficult. When a large-scale flower landscape needs to be arranged or a large-scale application of flower boxes is required, the inability to splice them effectively necessitates the use of numerous independent side panels. This increases the number of side panels and makes the overall production cost of the flower boxes too high. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a new type of flower box, which aims to solve the problem that existing flower boxes cannot be assembled or spliced.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0046] This utility model provides a novel flower box, including a base plate with support columns connected to the four corners of the top of the base plate. Each support column has two sets of symmetrically distributed vertical grooves, which are adapted to protrusions at the ends of the side panels. Through the insertion connection between the protrusions and the vertical grooves, the four side panels are detachably connected to adjacent support columns, collectively forming the rectangular flower box body. It should be noted that the base plate, support columns, and side panels constituting this flower box can take various forms. Two embodiments are listed below for illustration; however, the forms are not limited to these two and other forms are also possible.

[0047] Example 1, see Figures 1-6 The base plate is a first base plate 11, and the support column is a first support column 12. The first base plate 11 and the first support column 12 are fixedly connected by bolts or integrally fixed. The vertical groove on the first support column 12 is a cross-shaped groove 121. The side plate is a first side plate 13, and the protrusion at the end of the first side plate 13 is a T-shaped protrusion 131. The end face of the T-shaped protrusion is provided with a sealing strip 132. The T-shaped protrusion 131 is adapted to and inserted into the corresponding part of the cross-shaped groove 121. The sealing strip is used to seal the remaining part of the cross-shaped groove 121 when the T-shaped protrusion 131 is inserted into the cross-shaped groove 121.

[0048] Furthermore, it also includes a water collection box 15, which is slidably connected to the first side plate 13. A first drain plate 14 is provided on the inner side of the first side plate 13, and the first drain plate 14 has several first holes 141. Specifically, the first drain plate 14 is connected to the first side plate 13 around its perimeter by bolts, or the first side plate 13 has protrusions, and the first drain plate 14 is placed on the first side plate 13. A watering pipe 16 is provided on the top of the first drain plate 14, and the watering pipe 16 is connected to the outlet end of a water pump 17 located below the first drain plate 14; the inlet end of the water pump 17 is connected to an inlet pipe 18, which extends into the water collection box 15. A temperature and humidity detector 5 or a soil sensor 6 is embedded in the first side plate 13.

[0049] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: When using this flower box, firstly, the first base plate 11 and the first support column 12 are fixed with bolts, and then the first side plates 13 around the perimeter are inserted and installed. Since the sealing strip 132 is fixed to the end face of the T-shaped protrusion 131 on the first side plate 13 by means of pasting or other methods, the T-shaped protrusion 131 and the sealing strip 132 will be embedded together into the cross-shaped groove 121 of the first support column 12, thus realizing the splicing and assembly of the flower box.

[0050] Subsequently, a first draining plate 14 is installed on the inner wall of the first side plate 13. Soil is placed on top of the first draining plate 14 for planting. Water is stored in the water collection box 15. A temperature and humidity detector 5 or a soil sensor 6 is installed and embedded in the first side plate 13. The temperature and humidity data of the soil are measured by the temperature and humidity detector 5 or the soil sensor 6. When the soil humidity or other parameters are detected to be lower than the set threshold, the humidity detector 5 or the soil sensor 6 controls the water pump 17 to flow the water in the water collection box 15 into the watering pipe 16 through the water inlet pipe 18. Excess water can fall through the first hole 141 of the first draining plate 14 to prevent excessive water accumulation.

[0051] Example 2, see Figure 7 - Figure 13 The base plate is a second base plate 21, and the second base plate 21 is provided with a tenon 211; the support column is a second support column 22, and the vertical groove opened on the second support column 22 is a first trapezoidal groove 221; the first trapezoidal groove 221 is detachably connected to the tenon 211 of the second base plate 21; the side plate is a second side plate 23, and the protrusion provided at the end of the second side plate 23 is a first trapezoidal protrusion 231, which is adapted to and inserted into the first trapezoidal groove 221.

[0052] Furthermore, a second drain plate 24 is provided on the second base plate 21, and a plurality of second holes 241 are provided on the second drain plate; a water collection trough 212 is also provided on the second base plate 21, and a drain hole 213 connected to the water collection trough 212. The drain hole 213 is used to drain the water in the water collection trough 212 and is normally sealed by a sealing plug 214.

[0053] Multiple second trapezoidal grooves 232 can be provided on the inner and outer walls of the second side plate 23 (for example, one or more grooves can be provided on the inner or outer wall of the second side plate 23). These second trapezoidal grooves 232 are mainly used to engage the shower head 3 and the water tank 4: the shower head 3 is engaged with the inner wall of the second side plate 23 by its own second trapezoidal protrusion 31; the water tank 4 is engaged with the outer or inner wall of the second side plate 23 by its own third trapezoidal protrusion 41, and the water tank 4 supplies water to the shower head 3 through a micro water pump, which can be a commercially available water dispenser pump, etc. Of course, the shower head 3 and the water tank 4 may not be provided with corresponding second trapezoidal protrusions 31 and third trapezoidal protrusions 41: in this case, the shower head 3 can be fixed to the inner wall of the second side plate 23 by means of adhesive, etc.; the water tank 4 can be fixed from the inner wall of the second side plate 23 by means of adhesive, etc. Figure 12 The part shown is embedded in the second side plate 23 and supported by the second bottom plate 21 or the second drain plate 24. When water is added, it can be pulled out like a drawer.

[0054] Furthermore, the second trapezoidal grooves 232 on the inner and outer walls of the second side plate 23 can be interlocked with the first trapezoidal protrusions 231 at the ends of other second side plates 23 to create various shapes. Simultaneously, the second side plate 23 is also equipped with a temperature and humidity detector 5 or a soil sensor 6 for real-time monitoring of the soil environment inside the flower box. When water or nutrient solution needs to be added, the temperature and humidity detector 5 or soil sensor 6 can automatically control the water pump to add water, or prompt the user to manually start the water pump to add water or nutrient solution.

[0055] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: the tenon 211 of the second base plate 21 is fitted and inserted into the first trapezoidal groove 221 of the second support column 22, and the first trapezoidal protrusion 231 of the second side plate 23 is fitted and inserted into the first trapezoidal groove 221 of the second support column 22, respectively, to quickly assemble the main body of the rectangular flower box. For drainage, the second hole 241 of the second drain plate 24 allows excess water to seep into the water collection trough 212 and then drain through the drain hole 213, preventing root rot in plants. When automatic irrigation is needed, the water tank 4 is attached to the inner or outer wall of the second side plate 23 to store water. The water pump connected to the water tank 4 pumps the water to the sprinkler head 3 attached to the inner wall of the second side plate 23 for even watering. Simultaneously, the temperature and humidity detector 5 or soil sensor 6 embedded in the water tank can monitor soil temperature, humidity, fertility, and other parameters in real time. When water needs to be added, the micro water pump is controlled to draw water from the water tank 4 to the sprinkler head. The water in the water tank 4 can be fertilizer water, nutrient solution, etc.

[0056] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
